Apparatuses and methods for delivery of medicaments such as insulin disclosed herein can increase the effectiveness of therapy by adjusting medicament delivery parameters to account for the loss of medicament absorption upon delivering medicament at a new insertion site. When a needle is inserted at a new site on a patient's body for delivery of medicament to that patient, a natural inflammatory response by the body to insertion of the needle causes the body to resist absorption of the delivered medicament. However, this medicament resistance decreases over time. Embodiments of the invention therefore adjust medicament delivery to deliver less medicament as time passes after an infusion set change causes medicament to be delivered at a new insertion site. |
